Seller's Story

Hello everyone, Thanks to the sales carried out on Catawiki, the NGO Abou-Sorro funded the construction of a school complex consisting of three buildings, latrines and a recreational area, on Kassa Island, in Guinea Conakry. The school welcomed the first students from the villages of Sorro and Mangué in November 2020. The official inauguration took place on October 24, 2025, and today the school complex hosts 400 young islanders, supervised by 9 education professionals. However, the NGO Abou-Sorro continues to support this community and thanks buyers from around the world who contribute to this educational cause. Those most interested in this venture can follow NGO Abou-Sorro through our various websites and the numerous press articles devoted to the topic. Memberships for 2026 are also available on the Hello-Asso site. Thank you all! For NGO Abou-Sorro, the president, Mr. Castagno
